For nearly thirty years and through the tenure of five editors-in-chief, Nash K. Burger was on the editorial staff of the
New York Times Book Review. In this engaging reminiscence he explores the route that took him to that bastion of the book
world, headquartered in New York City on West 43rd Street. Burger is a natural raconteur whose ease with the word enhances
this appealing narrative. His point of view, though particularly southern, has been honed for a national audience who will
be entertained and enlightened by his personal perspective. Burger grew up in a circle of talented adolescents in Jackson,
Mississippi, that includes one of his oldest friends, the author Eudora Welty, who preceded him at the Book Review during
one summer when she served as copy editor
